Please join the Brooklyn Bird Club Thursday, May 15th 6:30 PM at the
Litchfield Villa for:
Ecuador: East Slope/West Slope
Presenter: Sandy Paci
The avifauna of the small South American country of Ecuador is largely defined by the mighty Andes Mountains, which run like a spine down the center of the country, sloping in the East down to the Amazon Basin and in the West to the Pacific Ocean. BBC member Sandra Paci will discuss the bird life of this fascinating, easily accessible Neotropical region and present photography from two recent visits. Sandy is an enthusiast of Latin American art and culture and has traveled there regularly since the mid-1980s-long before she knew a Tanager from an Antpitta.
